Lost In His Dreams

(álbum: Everybody Knows - 1968)

Hey!

He gets up in the early hours of night (Gets up in the early hours of night)
A-bumbles in his pocket for a light
We can't criticize him you and me (We can't criticize him you and me)
The man who spends his life lost in his dreams

He tells about some colors never there (Tells about some colors never there)
And in his mind he doesn't have a care
He thinks he's better off than you and me (Thinks he's better off than you and me)
The man who spends his life lost in his dreams

In his illusions he can forget all his loneliness
And your guess is as good as mine
We don't know if he's wasting his time

He says the world is pushing him to rob (Says the world is pushing him to rob)
Depriving him of sugar cubes and lard
He thinks he's better off than you and me (Thinks he's better off than you and me)
The man who spends his life lost in his dreams

La-la-la, la-la-la, la (La-la-la, la-la-la, la)
La-la-la, la-la-la, la (La-la-la)
He thinks he's better off than you and me (Thinks he's better off than you and me)
The man who spends his life lost in his dreams

The man who wastes his life lost in his dreams
La-la-la, la-la-la, la
